Kerala-based artist PR Satheesh focusses on his bond with nature through ‘abstract landscapes’
Defined by infinite loops in bold colours such as acid yellows and greens, the large-scale paintings do not feature defined figures or clean lines.
Growing up on a plantation in Munnar, located at the edge of a forest, PR Satheesh forged a strong bond with nature in his early years. He would spend hours amid trees or playing with animals. Spotting a wild creature that had strayed into their property or around it, wasn’t uncommon either. But when he left for Government College of Fine Arts in Trivandrum, his first real exposure to city life, it overwhelmed him. “It was a stark contrast to the life I had led growing up, and this is what my art is about,” explains Satheesh, looking at his multi-panel untitled artwork that hangs at Galerie Mirchandani + Steinruecke in Colaba, Mumbai.
